Might be a steal, but if no one offered him a guaranteed big league deal I suspect he's a project.
He's spaghetti, which is fine, but he's spaghetti that we're counting on to hold down the no. 3 spot in the rotation, in front of Walker and Paxton. We have three rolls of the dice, plus Erasmo and Maurer as depth. Not a comforting thought if you hope to have some post-season baseball. I'd rather they pay the money to lock in three of the five slots.
Taken in isolation, this move is fine but I don't see it as a precursor to an additional splash.
